Cat’s Out of the Bag →  Riarkle F2F

[Riley sat in the bay window, her diary in her lap, a pen with purple feathers sticking out of the end of it clutched between her fingers as she wrote down everything that had been going on the past two days at school. Falling into Lucas Friar’s lap, getting sorted into the sidekick class, trying to get Lucas Friar to sit with her and Maya and Farkle at lunch even though he was lke way too cute to be seen with them, avoiding telling her parents about being a sidekick... Everything in there was stuff she’d never want Auggie to see, and she hoped Farkle showed up soon to help her with brother-proofing it -- and maybe also with her algebra homework -- before it was too late.

Riley heard a noise behind her, and she whirled towards her window, pulling it open in one fluid motion at the sight of Farkle.] “Farkle!” [Riley’s excited exclamation was accompanied by her throwing her arms around her friend before he even got a chance to climb inside. She was so relieved to have him here as a distraction from the secrets she was keeping from her family, and truth be told, not having him in classes with her and Maya all day everyday anymore gave her too much time to miss him, too. Even though she’d just seen him on the bus, Riley felt like she’d hardly gotten to talk to him since they started at Sky High.] “How’s my favorite genius today?”

MOVING IN → F2F

“I know we agreed that moving into our own apartment would really help with the whole ‘becoming human’ thing, Riles, but did we have to pick somewhere so... old? Because I don’t think that grey color on the walls is paint.”

SO WE MEET AGAIN → RIARKLE F2F

[Riley was ushered down the sidewalk as part of a large group of people making their way through the city streets, and she couldn’t help but smile at the familiar noise and bustling movement of New York City. She’d missed it while she was away -- and more than the city itself, she’d missed the people she loved most, her friends and especially her family. That was why, less than 24 hours after she’d gotten home, she found her way down the familiar steps to Topanga’s, wanting a hot chocolate and an excuse to spend more time with her mother after months away. She waved eagerly at Katy Hart behind the counter as she crossed the threshold of the little shop, placing an order when she didn’t see her mom anywhere.

Hot cocoa in hand, she looked for an empty spot, and saw one of the few open chairs in the place... directly across from a familiar face. Riley tried to wave to get his attention, calling out ‘Farkle!’ excitedly through the crowd, but he was too caught up in whatever was on his phone screen to notice. Sure, it had been too long since they’d spoken, but he wouldn’t ignore one of his oldest friends, would he? Deciding to try again, Riley crossed the room to where he was sitting, placing her hand gently on his shoulder from behind and speaking in a more tentative voice this time.] “Farkle?”
